Some environmental activists have declared that Hurricane Matthew was proof of the existence of man-made global warming is real (because apparently there’s never been a strong hurricane before), but one activist went even farther.

Aura Bogodo posted on her Twitter account (which has since been taken offline) that the deaths caused by Hurricane Matthew were actually the result of “environmental racism.”

“The death toll in Haiti from Hurricane Matthew is 339. That’s what environmental racism looks like. #blacklivesmatter,” Bogado wrote in the tweet.

The internet immediately seized on the tweet and began roundly mocking Bogodo for sounding like an utter moron. Taking a natural disaster and trying to make it about racism showed just how dumb she really is.

The Midwest is struck by tornadoes every year that kill dozens, sometimes hundreds, of people. You don’t see anyone claiming that tornadoes are racist because they target white Midwestern farmers.

Statements like these are why people have a hard time ever taking liberals seriously. If you want to protest racism in America, fine. But when you start claiming that natural disasters are somehow the result of racism, you lose whatever credibility you may have had in the first place.

To be honest, I’m surprised Bogodo didn’t also talk about how sexist it was that the hurricane had a male name. I’m sure she could have come up with some explanation about how the hurricane was actually the result of an oppressive patriarchy.
